    Story

    To celebrate Menstrual Hygiene Day on May 28th 2017, we're piloting a new and improved menstruation workshop for a class of local schoolchildren. The workshop has two aims:

    1. Educate students on their own menstrual health
    2. Raise awareness of the menstruation issues facing marginalised groups e.g. homeless people

    The class will be provided with their own menstrual cups or reusable cloth sanitary pads to take home, and spend some time making up packs of disposable items which we will take to a local charity. This is where you can help!

    For £5, you can pay for the transport and a morning coffee for a Verbal Remedy volunteer attending the workshop.
    For £10, you can provide a readymade pack of towels, tampons, underwear and wet wipes for three women (approx.)
    For £20, you can pay for a local schoolchild to receive a menstrual cup (and a lesson on how to use it) at no cost to them or their family.

    These are just a guide - every donation helps, no matter how small.

    The more we raise, the more we can provide - so please help if you can, and share our campaign!
